I remember when they had all the episodes for free on southpark.com.
Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Honestly they did this to themselves because they got greedy. Made a bunch of deals back in 2018-2019 that led to today's shitshow. Sorry guys, you lived long enough to become the villain instead of dying the hero.

They're "villains" because they wanted just half of the revenue from the show they created?
-
They went out of their way in the late 2000's to put the entire catalog on their own website so anyone on any device could watch any episode they wanted any time.
They're villains because they chose to make deals and provide an inferior experience to their fans by removing the ability to watch them all on southpark.com and instead force them behind paywalled systems like Hulu, HBO Max, and Paramount+. They had a good thing, and they threw it in the trash for a deal that now means hardly anyone who is paying money can actually watch them.
I even remember their reasoning back then was because they were tired of pirating their own show to see copies of it digitally. They also saw it as a way to fight piracy by giving an easy, legal pathway to watching. They stopped giving a damn about all that.
Seems like a lot of interviews during this period are lost or memory-holed. This is the closest I can find to what I am talking about:

Does this link work for you?

“Sorry, this video is not available from your location”
… which is a near universal rule when it comes to Australia :p

Maybe they erased their episodes but I still have my episodes untouched by censor junkies.

Shouldn't comment as this doesn't effect me, but why is 90% of the population not just stealing this shit?! If I want to watch a thing, and might want to again, I download it.
This shit is not hard. My first wife was laughing with another lady in the Walmart line about downloading from aXXo. "He's the best!" Y'all, this was almost 20-years ago!

Good, South Park is enlightened centrism slop
-
I hate that people enjoy things
-
Insert Kyle Broflovski preachy centrist speech here
-
Remember when they spent... like... fifteen years doing climate change denialism? But hey, at least they made fun of Donald Trump by... calling him... gay. Oof.
Hollywood Libertarianism. Not even once, kids.

Don't forget the decades of transphobia as well!
